Emily Andre kept loved-ones 'in the dark' during first pregnancy as she was 'only 24'

Emily Andre has revealed that nobody expected her to be pregnant when she was expecting her first child at 24.

The NHS doctor, who is married to pop star Peter Andre, welcomed her daughter Amelia, back in 2014.

At the time, Emily was only 24, and her nearest and dearest never 'expected' that she would fall pregnant so young.

Emily, who also shares son Theo, 5, with husband Peter, 48, opened up about her first pregnancy in her latest OK! Magazine column.

The proud mum-of-two revealed that she kept her first pregnancy 'in the dark' for as long as she could.

"I don’t think any of my friends guessed I was pregnant and I managed to keep everyone in the dark until it was the right time to tell them," Emily admitted.

"I think maybe no one guessed with me because I was quite young when I got pregnant with Millie, so no one was expecting it," she added.

Emily's pregnancy admission comes after her husband Peter opened up about the challenges of parenthood.

The singer-songwriter, 48, is also the parent of teenagers Junior Andre, 16, and Princess Andre, 14 - who are his kids with ex-wife Katie Price, 43, whom he divorced in 2009.

And he has now said that raising a family with no childcare can be 'full on', especially with him having recently been on tour and his wife being a doctor within the NHS doctor.

Peter said he had been taking his children to various clubs last week, with him admitting that he had thought to himself: "I don't know how stay-at-home parents do it."

"Both Emily and I work and with no childcare it can get full-on. I think there is often the view that it’s easy."

Pete was able to be 'a bit more hands-on' lately due to having time off work, with him managing to take over 'a lot of the bits Emily would usually do' to give her a break.
